Thank you to the first responders who have been working tirelessly to save lives in Surfside. Your selfless actions are bringing comfort in a time of pain for the South Florida community.
Received an update from the FLSERT team and local officials in Surfside earlier today. We are working closely with local and federal officials to ensure that all necessary resources are available.
In the face of tragedy our families and communities keep us strong. Our Surfside family is hurting but the spirit of hope is on display with local, community and faith leaders helping those in need.

The suspect in the vicious shooting of Police Officer Jason Raynor was apprehended by Georgia police at a black nationalist paramilitary encampment. There is no place for hate in Florida. Our law enforcement will be protected. Justice will be swift. https://www.news4jax.com/news/local/2021/06/26/statewide-manhunt-for-othal-wallace-ends-saturday-morning/?outputType=amp
First responders are making progress and FEMA is working with FLSERT to make sure all the families affected by the Surfside disaster are taken care of with counselors, resources, shelter, and assistance.
Yesterday, Israeli PM @naftalibennett1 offered Israel’s full support to Florida, and today, at the request of some Surfside families, we welcomed an expert IDF recovery team to supplement Surfside’s search and rescue efforts.

Casey DeSantis and I thank the volunteers, first responders, law enforcement, and search teams for your unwavering dedication to supporting Surfside. The Surfside community knows that you are doing all you can during the search & rescue mission following this horrible tragedy.
While we continue to support Surfside and monitor ongoing search efforts, we are also preparing for potential effects from Tropical Storm #Elsa. NHC Atlantic predicts this storm could impact Florida early next week. Please follow FLSERT for developments over the coming days.
More than 440 USAR members from New Jersey, Ohio, Virginia, and Indiana are on the ground in Surfside to help supplement the search and rescue efforts. Florida is grateful for the outpouring of support. Thanks to Royal Caribbean for providing accommodations!
